Second viewing.
Mr. Bean takes a trip to Cannes, filming everything with his camcorder. He is responsible for the separation of father and son at the train station. He tries to reunite them, and meets a film actress on the way. They all meet at the Cannes Festival, where an ego-obsessed actor-director is having his premiere.
Entertaining and occasionally creative comedy. I was a little too harsh on it on first viewing, upon which I wrote:
"Synopsis: Bean wins a trip to the South of France, along with a video camera. He asks a man in the station to film him and this causes that man to miss the train, which his kid has already boarded. Bean accompanies the kid down to Cannes, where the latter's father will be a Festival juror.
Appraisal: A little disappointing. It's a nice film, but not very funny or brilliant."
